No Friday's Hero post today, sorry.  I had one in mind, but  then I found myself completely distracted by the ENORMOUS number of yard and estate sales that are on for this weekend!  Hot dog!  It's finally open season!  I like to use the online classifieds to scope out the sales in advance, you locals can find it here.  Just use the drop-down menu to select a city, but don't forget to check out the Estate Sales, too.  Of course, if you may want to cross-reference this with your Saturday paper, too (God forbid you miss a single sale!)  If all goes well, I should have some exiting finds to post about on Monday.

So what do the photos of trashy, romance novels have to do with all of this (you may be asking yourself)?  Well, I can't really explain that right now because I broke my serger a few weeks ago. I know, I was so pissed.  But, there a two things that give me hope: A.  I saw the piece that broke off, so it looks like the repair should be pretty simple, and B:  the repairman said the machine is worth $600 and I paid only $90 for it (sweet.)  The fact that it is still in the shop going on 2 weeks now is dampening my spirits a little, but I'm trying not to worry.  You see, I have this great project I want to start that involves these juicy paperbacks, and I need the serger to make it all happen.  Are you intrigued yet?  Too bad, you'll just have to wait.

Here's to a steamy and tawdry weekend, everyone!

Thanks, now I have the Grease soundtrack stuck in my head...

The whole time I was reading this post I wondered what happened to my fellow horror loving girl. I mean romance novels? Oh the horror! LOL

ok, i am intrigued. can't wait to see what comes of all this trash :)

I cant wait to see what you are going to do with those!

I'm curious. What a funny ingredient to any project. It reminds me of the time I took my white elephant gift to our church party in a Victoria's Secret bag.. (it was a heart monitor).. :)
